ARAK UNFRIED LOSES

Best Wrestling Match Ever Seon in
Rossland.

MOTH HAD BEST OF IT FROM START

Enthusiastic Audience Well Pleased
With Result and the
Fair Play. .

Last night Frank Umfried and Char-
lie Moth were the contestants in what
ig acknowledged to have been the most
scientific wrestling match ever seen in
Rossland. The audience was one of the
largest in the, history of the Interna-
tional. Splendid order prevailed dur-
Ld the evening, and the sathusiesc

was ape all times attentive to es comfort
of his patrons, and “hats off” was the
ruling order all over the house.

Max Karter was chosen referee, being
acceptable to both contestants. ‘“Cool-
gardie’? Smith was timekeeper.

Professor Lewia was Moth’s second
and Jazry Haley performed alike ser-
vice for Umfried. The combatants eu-
tered the ring, which wasin excellent
condition, about 11:45 p.m. The ref-
eree gave out that the contest would be
best two in three, catch-as-catch-can
holds, strangle hold barred. Umfried
entered the ring first and was accorded
awelcome reception, he being 2 local
blacksmith, well and fayorably known
by most of Roseland’s public. Moth is
not @ stranger here either, and was well
received upon his entrance.

Both looked to be in the pink of con-
dition, although Umfried was said to be
soft in flesh and muscle from being out
of training so long.

No time was lost in preliminaries,
Both men worked fore fall, and never
overlooked a chance from the beginning.
Every hold known to the ring, strangle
extepted, was used at some time during
the bout, The match was notably clear
of fouls or flukes, and ded by all to

Whilé it has been -y for near-
ly every denomination of the Protest-
ant church to hold special services on
Thanksgiving day in the United States,
ithas been a noticeable fact that the
Roman Catholic church has heretofore
paid no attention to the call for services
from either the president or the gover-
nore of atates. This year it will be a
matter of historical note that the “Ro-
pwmteSuctatic church has fallen into
line with the American custom, and has
ordered special services to be held in
every one of the churches of the “land

The oceasional observance Ste aday of

by the the civil authorities, was not un-
usualin Europe, and such a day waz ob-
served in Lynden, Holland, October 3,
1675, the first anniversary of the deliv-
eranice of that city from seige. In 1608,

the Pilgrim church, exiled from Eng-
Jand, went to Holland, and remained
there till 1620, when it sent off the May-

from a dangerous position.

The Grst bout lasted 20 minutes and 5
seconds and was won by Moth in a com-
bination of half Nelson and breech hold.
Several times during this bout Umfried
had Moth one point down, but each
time Moth wonld break the hold and
escape.

The second bout was if anything hard-
er fought than the previous one, clever
work being done by both, but Moth
eyentually got the beat of his opponent

floor together, Moth recovering himeelf
quickly, succeeded in securinga very
firm hammerlock and a half Neleon,
and slowly but surely forced Umfried to
the canvas, winning the bout and con-
test.

Just before the wrestling bout a
friendly four-round go with gloves, be-
tween Jerry Haley and Fred Roas, took
place. Haley was not in good condition,
but put up, a lively defense notwith-
standing. Ross was given the decision,
being in the better condition, at the end
of four rounds.
